It was my first visit to a sake shop, and I wanted to buy a sake that could only be found here. Then I noticed a sake that is only available at four stores in Japan, and it was a kijozo-shu (a sake made with alcohol)! Everything was too chaotic, and I wanted to try this sake! What would it taste like? Let's go!
The aroma is surprisingly mild, with a freshness derived from the aluzoe flavor and a faint sweet aroma like that of murayuke. The slightly viscous sweet brewing water... Is this sake? This one brings a deep, rich sweetness like port wine. If I had to say more, I would say it is like Murayusuke, but a kijoshu with honjozo is really a sake that shatters the concept of kijoshu. The astringency and acidity pleasantly muffles the palate. This one is thicker than Shinmasa's Yonotori. However, by adjusting the aroma with aloso sake, the brewer has created a sake that is wonderfully easy to drink. I think raisins would be a good accompaniment. I will visit Fukuhara Sake Shop again! Thanks again for the food tonight! (カワダ調べ)Cankerina occidentalis
Celastrus orbiculatus
I forgot to put it on the list. It is delicious with a gaseous taste. Pineapple
It is said that the name "Kangiku" comes from its strong and beautiful blooming appearance even in the cold season, just like Kangiku (chrysanthemum blooming in the cold) that blooms in the winter.
OccasionalOccasional infrequent occurrence (カワダ調べ)Eikouji Yaminari Shusui
It was delicious with an assertive taste typical of Eikoufuji. Pineapple
Eikoufuji's label and name have a high school boy feel, and this time too, the official responded by saying the name looks like Manjikai on social media.
The name comes from the fact that the character for "glory" was added to the original sake name "Fuji" to express the wish for prosperity. It is also said that the symmetrical character "Eiko Fuji" represents the brewery's philosophy of "sake brewing with no two sides of the same coin. (カワダ調べ)Kankiku Occasional Monochrome
A super-limited Occasional series focusing on unfiltered, unfiltered sake brewed only once a year.
Mr. Yanagishita, the toji, originally worked as an aircraft mechanic for JAL at Narita Airport, but his attachment to his hometown of Chiba and his desire to do work that only he could do led him to the sake brewing industry. After joining Kangiku Meikozo in the beer brewing department, he was selected to be the toji (master brewer), despite his lack of experience, when the previous master brewer retired. He initially trained under his predecessor and is now in charge of sake brewing as a toji.
The name "Kangiku" is said to have come from the appearance of Kangiku (chrysanthemums that bloom in winter), which bloom strongly and beautifully even in the coldest season.
OccasionalOccasional infrequent occurrence (カワダ調べ)Soumula
The label Hometown Crafts Nagai Sashiko was difficult to understand. I prefer labels that are easy to understand when buying.
Modern taste, fruity, refreshing and bitter. Mild, less acidic but lemony. Buntan.
Coined from the name "Soemon," which has been passed down from generation to generation by the brewer, and "Mura" = a group of craftsmen's handiwork. 
(カワダ調べ)Cankerina blue sapphire, Seigyoke
Sweet and fruity taste with a hint of pineapple and le le leche. I bought only this one because I couldn't fit all 4 kinds.

Masaaki SapporoCongratulations on your 200 check-ins🎊Kawada Checking, this is the first time I heard about Mr. Yanagishita's case 📝It looks like it will taste even better cold chrysanthemum 😋. (カワダ調べ)Thank you Masaaki Sapporo-san. I learned a lot about Kangiku from the person who was drinking next to me before and became interested in it, so I started to look into it myself. I feel closer to the brewery when I know the toji-san. パーム農家Oh, it smells so good! When the bottle is opened, the fruity aroma rises at once. Amazing!
It is a summer Jun Dai of Matsumidori, a summer staple. The aroma is typical of Omachi. Pine? Apple? Is there a hint of LaFrance?
This junmai daiginjo is full of fruity sweet and sour flavors. It is irresistible. I also like the gentle fizziness that stimulates my tongue. I love Matsumidori after all. Ryo and S.TOKYO are both delicious and modern, but Matsumidori suits me better. パーム農家My favorite Sawanoi nigori sake, specially ordered by Fukuhara Sake Shop. It has a faint apple-like aroma. In the mouth, it has a gentle sweetness, acidity, and a refreshing umami flavor that is typical of Sawanoi's nigori sake, which spreads with a fizzy, bubbly feeling. A refreshing nigori sake perfect for summer. I didn't know that Ozawa brewery also offers this kind of sake that is only available at liquor stores. That's wonderful!

Sugi Isamu is always available at the Japanese restaurants we sometimes visit.
I went there because I was told that it was made by Fukuhara-san, and I bought it because it was sold by Fukuhara-san.
It had a refreshing summery taste and label. (カワダ調べ)While eating Gifu cuisine, I befriended a nearby uncle and we talked about Hourai and W.
The three "W "s, Watanabe (Watanabe sake brewery), World (World), and Warai (laughter), are incorporated into the name, expressing the desire to convey the charm of sake to the world and to bring smiles to the faces of those who drink it.
More than 14 varieties of sake rice are used in the W series, and in order to clarify the differences between the different sake rice varieties, the yeast is unified as "M310 yeast".
The rice polishing ratio is also unified at 50%, and although the sake is Junmai Daiginjo standard, it is labeled "Junmai-shu" on the label. (カワダ調べ)nit (Nit.)

It is a sake brand launched in 2015. Its name comes from the paradoxical idea that "only he who pursues two hares will catch two hares," and it aims to harmonize seemingly conflicting elements such as taste and aroma, sweetness and spiciness, heaviness and lightness at a high level .
Maruishi Brewery has abolished the traditional toji (master brewer) and kurabito (brewer) system, and instead has adopted a "tank-responsible brewing" style in which all employees are involved in the sake brewing process. This allows each person in charge of brewing to take full responsibility from preparation to bottling, creating a challenging and rewarding work environment that improves skills. (カワダ調べ)Hanamura era (of the Northern Court) (1368.2.18-1361.3.18)
Hanamura" is a Japanese sake developed by Ryoseki Sake Brewery, a long-established sake brewery in Akita Prefecture, under the guidance of Kenso Takagi, president of Takagi Sake Brewery, which brews the famous Yamagata sake "Jyushidai.
The sake has a flavor as beautiful as a flower, and the idea was to create a sake that would build harmony among people. (カワダ調べ)Gakki Masamune Konjo Dewasan San
(Originating from a comment made by the composer of Kimigayo, Oku Yoshiyoshi, a gagaku master of the Imperial Household Agency, when the imperial family visited Japan during the Taisho era (1912-1926): "Making sake and playing musical instruments are both offerings to the gods in the same way in the first place.

Shisora is a new brand of sake launched in 2021 by the Shiwa Sake Brewery in Shiwa-machi, Iwate Prefecture. The name was taken from the word for the universe or sky that surrounds us, and one letter from the brewery's location, Shiwa-machi. 川鶴特別純米 限定生原酒 オオセト特別純米原酒生酒 パーム農家Kawazuru is made from Oceto, a rice suitable for sake brewing produced in Kagawa Prefecture. The aroma seems subdued. It seems to have a refreshing aroma with a hint of sourness. The sweetness and umami are well expressed but very elegant, kind of like a Japanese pear with little sweetness.
This may sound strange, but is this the kind of sake you would want to drink after drinking sake? RecommendedContentsSectionView.title
